Flower Fairies The Meaning of Flowers (Flower Fairies) Hardback - 1996

by Cicely Mary Barker


From the publisher

Compiled using popular superstitions and ancient folklore, this dictionary focuses on the meaning of flowers. It looks at such subjects as how the Cowslip became the symbol of joy, and how the bramble bush became known as the plant of envy. It also covers more practical uses that can be gained from flowers, such as finding a cure for insomnia or memory loss.

First line

The Agrimony may have earned this meaning because of the likeness of its flowers to the little hand-bells once carried by hermits when collecting alms for the poor.
